Score and Ranking System

Ranking is similar to any other shooter. You kill, complete objectives, you are rewarded with points and those points in turn help you rank up and unlock stuff. The number of points it takes to rank up grows exponentially.

Killzone 3 is different, however, in that you don’t unlock anything by ranking up (minus a handful of perks) – instead, with each ranking, you receive an unlock point, which you can use to unlock what you want.

Here’s a breakdown of how you can earn points in Killzone 3:

Kills
100 pts. for a standard kill.
150 pts. for a headshot kill.
150 pts. for melee kill.
150 pts. for an explosive kill.
25 pts. for a kill assist.

Match Bonus
25 pts. for 5 kills with the same weapon.
25 pts. for 10 kills.
50 pts. for 10 kills with the same weapon.
100 pts. for most kills.
100 pts. for longest killstreak.
100 pts. for best kill/death ratio.
100 pts. for most revives/repairs/etc.

Match Bonus Multipliers
x1.5 for being on the winning team.
x1.375 for a draw.
x1.25 for being on the losing team.

Killzone 3 Multiplayer Class Unlocks Guide

Every time you go up a rank, you earn unlock points. These points can be used to unlock things in the ranks that you want to use. The only exception are some special perks and explosives that are awarded as you rank up. But for the most part, all abilities and weapons are earned with unlock points.

The first primary ability, and the first primary weapon are unlocked automatically at the beginning. The first secondary ability and the first secondary weapon have to be unlocked, and cost one point each. Each subsequent unlock in each category costs one more point that the one before it. It must also be noted that each category must be unlocked in order – the first secondary ability is a pre-requisite for unlocking the second secondary ability, and so on.

Following are the unlock points required to unlock all the abilities of each class.
